I have a 75g tank with an orange back fairy, leopard wrasse and a yellowtail tamarin. I was looking into getting another wrasse for the tank. Im mostly interested in a lineatus/golden rhomboid fairy, pintail flasher or a potters/chaoti leopard. Would any of these be fine with my current fish? If not which wouldn't be good to add. I know when my leopard was added he got a beating for 2 days from the tamarin and now they are buds. Thanks

Compatibility wise, all would be fine (and the pintail is a fairy, not a flasher). However, I would not put a lineatus in a 75g tank - it's a big species. For Cirrhilabrus considerations, check this out: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/c...feriority-need-not-apply-1st-revision.322326/
Adding another leopard is feasible, provided you are not trying to add a male if your leopard wrasse is also male. It's also worth noting that choati and geoffroy are definitely the most delicate and difficult species of the genus.
 
The leopard is a small female. Would adding another female if it was a leopard be better over a male? For some reason i said pintail but ment diamond tail flasher.
 
Yes, any flasher would be fine too. And it's nice to see another vendor with the right pricing on attenuatus and not a double-that-price-money-grab. ;)

Yes, a bit safer.

Either species would be okay. Any Paracheilinus is fair game.

hahahaa, that’s the same nyc, but way different pricing.
poto for the win!

Thanks for the info.
